joel, please try

http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/mabshoff/sage-2.8.13-osx10.4-i386-Darwin.tar.gz

with

60dd1afb54e093f3c3859274c1aa8dc7  /home/mabshoff/sage-2.8.13-osx10.4-
i386-Darwin.tar.gz

If this works: William, can you please update the tarball on
sagemath.org and mirror it out. 2.8.15 will be out anyways in a couple
days, but it might still be worth it. It is also a good idea to make
sure that the issue with the symbolic link doesn't happen again.

I am an idiot, that box is PPC, but since William updated bsd to 10.5
he is using some other MacIntel to do the 10.4 binaries.
